Step 2: Cut back on fat Cut back on saturated fats like the animal fat in red meat, and trans-fatty acids found in margarine and fried foods. Cultures that have higher prostate cancer rates tend to have more fat in their diet.

TIP: Eat more fresh fish, which has the beneficial omega-3 fatty acids.

Step 3: Add fruits and vegetables Make fruits and vegetables a key part of your diet. Vegetables high in folate, like spinach, asparagus, and beans have been linked with preventing many types of cancer. Cruciferous foods like broccoli and cauliflower help in prostate cancer prevention.
